Now I have the iPad with 3G for nearly 2 months. I am having trouble using all the allowance there is with Optus Australia.

I manage to use up only 2.2Gb of download and upload last month and that is with a lot of download of apps. By the way, apple does not allow me to download apps that more than 20Mb without logging into iTunes or Wifi.

I watch YouTube I have to say once a day at most but even so I don't use up much. After 22 days in the 2nd month I only use up 600Mb of the 1.5Gb. The trend is that even on the lowest/cheapest plan. I am struggling.

I guess I am asking anyone has an idea into usage of iPad and data allowance. I guess the US forum members here are on the unlimited plan and saying ... Don't care to me

I met my 5G quota last mont with my Sprint Overdrive MiFi. That was during a two week vacation with three family members each with their own iPads and or laptops. We had no other service, had to depend on the MiFi

used 30gigs in my first month downloading and watching video podcasts.

I am on the limited plan. According to my status, 119 mgs good for 19 more days. I only have 3G running when I'm on a road trip. Today, I'm going to Indianapolis, with IPad directed stops. Road trips consume a lot of data.
